Dayco has a lot of tensioners here:

These are their heavy duty versions and are built to last 1M miles. I have used some of their pulleys in my build and they are high quality.

i want a spring loaded one we have proved here that the belt stays tighter (less slip) with a spring loaded one when the belt stretches under WOT the solid one lets the belt slip
you would have to tighten it up at wot and then it would be to tight at idle
and they are very hard on the bearings on the blower drive and the other pulleys bearings
760-522-8669 This guy's name is Joe ...he made this tensioner and several others over the yrs ...They are great and I have never seen anyone that bought one of these ever have a problem ...Give him a shout and let him know what you are looking for ....Good Luck
